POINTS FROM OTHER LETTERS
Geo. Gordon suggests to the North Canterbury Hospital Board and other Canterbury local bodies that they
should provide receptacles in public places for the collection of medicine bottles as was once done by the Melbourne hospitals. The collection in Melbourne, the writer states, was followed by collections of eggs, flowers, and newspapers for hospital patients^ “Britisher” writes: “In my letter a few days ago I quoted several clauses taken from the original Magna Carta, which is still in existence. They all aim at giving liberty or freedom to the Britisher, and neither Professor Pollard nor Mr Campbell can prove otherwise. I am glad the Americans recognise the fact, if people living in England or New Zealand dp not.”
